1957 Map of Mahomet
USGS Topo · Published 1964About this map
The Sangamon River meanders through this mid-century landscape, anchoring a region defined by the intersection of fertile prairie and burgeoning academic and transit hubs. The urban expansion of Champaign is visible in the east, characterized by the sprawling University of Illinois campus and the industrial infrastructure of the Illinois Central and Illinois Terminal railroads. This era shows a community in transition, where legacy one-room schoolhouses like Hensley Sch and Standard Sch (Abandoned) sit near the modern Illinois University Airport.
